Summary edit
| Description |
English: Plaque celebrating the influence of Elvis Presley on The Beatles, on the wall of the Cavern pub, Mathew Street, Liverpool.
LIVERPOOL & MEMPHIS: ROCK ‘N’ SOUL MATES Liverpool, on the banks of the River Mersey, and Memphis on the mighty Mississippi River are bonded by their definitive music heritage. In 1954, Elvis Presley ignited the Rock ‘n’ Roll revolution from Sun Studio in Memphis and heralded in a new era in music. The reverberations of that rebellious sound were felt as far away as Liverpool, where a young John Lennon took up Rock ‘n’ Roll. Joined by Paul, George, and ultimately Ringo, they forged their own careers and changed the world. The Beatles’ early career featured several Sun-era songs before they elevated Pop music to new heights. From Beale Street to Mathew Street, we salute Elvis and The Beatles, Memphis and Liverpool, the Home of Blues, Soul, Rock ‘n’ Roll and Pop music respectively. The cities continue to help tell each other's story and foster unique collaborations, including the grobal 50th Anniversary of Rock ‘n’ Roll celebration in 2004. The iconic sounds from both cities changed the world and continue to influence music today.
